I miss you now more than ever,you were the one that taught me laughter is is the only subduer of sarrow & when we cannot find the beauty in the world we can create it. Even the ugliest of happenings can be drawn & written poetically; your world is what you make it & you can grow to be whatever you want to be. Thank you for everything. I wish I had more years with you, but u gave me quality, over quantity &thats more precious than every grain of sand in the hour glass. I loved you then, I love you still , I always have & I always will.

To Norm's Family:

On behalf of my mother, Eloise, and my sister, Richelle, and me, we send our sincerest condolences on the passing of your dad (and family member) - and our friend/tenant who became family to us.... When Norman and Joy moved into the apartment building on Spring Street they instantly became part of our bigger family... they were both always willing to help out and do whatever they could! After Joy died, Norm was lost and we knew that --- yet he continued to help out in the yard and we would visit and talk with him as much as time would permit. Over the years, Richelle would run errands for him as she was heading out to run errands for our mom, too. There is no doubt he was part of the family. When it came time for us to sell the apartment building, we made no action without notifying Norm first... he was part of us!!! Now --- he is missed by us and will forever be with his true love, Joy. We are sure they are together and happy, looking down upon all their family, young again, healthy, and back in love!!! May Norm be at peace and may all of his family and friends find comfort knowing he is at rest.

Sincerely,

Eloise, Richelle, and Marcy Carlone
Formerly of 27 Spring Street
